The staff are amazing. We’ve been taking our puppy here for her checkups and shots and everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable. I was a little nervous taking a wiggly hyper puppy in by myself, but everyone was so good with her and make you feel comfortable right away. We are very happy with the care she has been receiving!

Hello fellow fur-parents! After several years and visits to various vets over 20yrs I was told by a customer about Dr. Wendy and The Stroud Clinic team. I have been taking my animals here proudly and confidently for over 10 years and would highly recommend them to everyone. If you want compassion, straight detailed answers or opinions Dr. Wendy… will give it to you (she may even draw a picture) so you are fully aware of your furbaby's (ies) health. I have always appreciated honesty as many of us need especially when it's an overwhelming situation. The compassion that enters a conversation
